Know what to do with a horse that won’t lead.
Horsemanship lessons to help you take the lead with your horse.
Do you find that your horse just won’t lead? If you’re struggling to get your horse to follow your commands and go where you need, The Glenn Stewart Academy is here to help. Our Stages program will give you the groundwork skills you need to ensure your horse always follows a lead.
Most problems with horses come down to our perspective, our feel and timing. If you assume your horse isn’t going to lead, it probably won’t! Also, if you’re not communicating with your horse in a way they understand, they’re going to come across as stubborn or unable to lead. With the Glenn Stewart Academy, you’ll grow your confidence with groundwork, riding, leading, saddling, and more valuable horsemanship skills!Â
With the Glenn Stewart Academy, you’ll unlock hundreds of resources perfect for everyone struggling with a horse that won’t lead (or any other problem for that matter). Sign up for our 30-Day Kickstart Program to have access to the ENTIRE training academy for only $85, down from $297. That's $212 in savings! Get a feel for the step-by-step training stages of horsemanship found in the Glenn Stewart Academy. You can check out the different lessons and coursework, past Zoom meetings, and more as you navigate through the 4 stages that will improve your horsemanship and help you work with any horse — and get them to lead!
